My fellow hunter Elsa drew my attention to a new trend of rings that are used as pots for real plants. However, the designs weren’t very male friendly, which is why I was happy to come upon this Growing Jewelry collection by Icelandic designer Hafsteinn Juliusson.
Appealing to both men and women, the collection offers an awesome growing ring in the shape of a badass brass knuckle.
Juliusson describes the collection as a ‘clash of jewelry and gardening; couture and organism’.
Living in big metropolitan cities, it’s hard to have the space (or time) to cater to a garden, so this is a nice way of having a portable garden with you to help you stay in touch with nature.
